From metaphor to materiality: grounding intersectional legal thought
ABSTRACT
When I first decided to investigate an intersectional approach to frame forces operating in cases of indigenous women affected by land conflicts, I had not envisioned that the metaphorical aspect would be such a crucial part of operationalizing the concept. Since its first formulation, the term intersectionality has been attached to the image of intersecting roads, and still today when searching for online videos for pedagogical purposes, the results show cars driving towards people standing on crossroads to explain the meaning. Intersecting roads, however, also emerged in my fieldwork in a literal maner. The passage from metaphor to materiality of the concept of intersectionality, I argue, can affect the identitarian logic that predominates in most proclaimed legal intersectional approaches. The paper proposes to bring intersectionality to materiality by re-imagining the metaphor of intersectionality through an ethnographic approach to indigenous peoples’ land conflicts in La Pampa, Argentina.
期刊介绍:
Law and Humanities is a peer-reviewed journal, providing a forum for scholarly discourse within the arts and humanities around the subject of law. For this purpose, the arts and humanities disciplines are taken to include literature, history (including history of art), philosophy, theology, classics and the whole spectrum of performance and representational arts. The remit of the journal does not extend to consideration of the laws that regulate practical aspects of the arts and humanities (such as the law of intellectual property). Law and Humanities is principally concerned to engage with those aspects of human experience which are not empirically quantifiable or scientifically predictable. Each issue will carry four or five major articles of between 8,000 and 12,000 words each. The journal will also carry shorter papers (up to 4,000 words) sharing good practice in law and humanities education; reports of conferences; reviews of books, exhibitions, plays, concerts and other artistic publications.
